unix command

I'm wondering if there is a command in unix that would chack if someone has copied a file from me. for example, if I had set my permissions so that everyone can read a particular file, and then someone actually coppied that file using cp command, to their own directory.

It is on the tip of my tongue so you might have someone come up with an epiphany if I say it. I know that it is kept in a file somewhere. Either /etc/blah or /var/blah. I can't think of it. It tells you who logged in at what times and everything. I hate mind blocks. try using grep on those files?? If you are extremely lucky you have linux administration for dummies with you it is in there.

this is on a university network, so I don't have acces to /var or /etc....and grep doesn't do anything for me either....
